There are the Ospreys and Serpent Spoons and etc. which are intended for kokanee. But the 3 I'm talking about hit a 4 inch long silver hammered Krocodile or that Lucky Crafter Pointer 65. They are usually deep like Bob said and usually pretty good sized.
We had a quadruple on Friday. That made number 13 for the boat all time. Still only 1 quintuple though. Too many doubles and triples to count.
It was around noon and I had just finished a turn and turned my head to look back at the fish finder when I saw it change from 49.9 to 50 degrees. I turned around and looked at the gear, right as it was going to finish the turn and "flip" to start a different direction. As soon as I located the gear, I saw two salmon skyrocket out of the water, 6 feet or so. One with the Lucky craft in his mouth on the planer board and the other 10' down on the downrigger with a pink hoochie trailing a pink dodger behind it.
I love how they go berserk in the early season and jump like the devil just forked them in the tail. Never gets old.
Yea, you got to love it when they come out of the water like that, very cool. What color Lucky Crafter Pointer 65 were you using?
It's not a secret by any stretch, but they are very hard to find in 65. Just so the google robots are less likely to find it, a brand new out of the package l a s e r r a i n b o w.
